I've been following Jeremy's project as well. It looks super clean. I've seen an 80 series that's been converted, and an XJ. Seems like they use prius/nissan leaf parts mostly and they do okay.

Range is the biggest problem though. The way I see it, EVs fit the Rock Crawler use case pretty good (unload from a trailer, run a technical, 10-mile trail with a lot of sitting around and watching other people roll over). Overland is really limited by range though. Towing doesn't even seem to be an option.

That's exactly what happened for me. I follow this on Mastodon and saw your post finally show up today.

Its certainly featured on Matt's YouTube channel frequently... that dude is one of the reasons I own an XJ instead of a GMC Yukon.

Its a neat rig and its surprised me a few times by just rolling over stuff. A guy named Ken runs a youtube channel called OffroadHub. He's basically built an FJC about as big as reasonably possible. Kinda nuts what they can do.

This was shot with a full moon behind me. I was happy to get the unique moonlit landscape with some faint milky way at the same time.
